    Remastered in 2025

    This remastering lark is catching on!

    Did anybody play the original? I have it in my Steam library but I
    don't think I've ever gone beyond starting it up, changing the
    graphics and key bindings, and then forgetting about it until it was uninstalled to make way for something else (which probably ended up
    getting the same treatment as well).

    It's showing as already in my library, so must be a free upgrade if you owned the 'official' Frogwares version, not the old Nakon one. I remember getting all worked up over Nakon's ownership shenanigans, searching till I found the 'official' version (that wasn't on steam), then having to get that purchase transferred over to steam. And after all that I never played it,
    lol. So perhaps its time?

    The sequel quickly reached its funding goal, supposed to release in
    December!

    Had it installed already. I've been "remastered." For free!

    Can't tell the difference so far except for the 30GB extra drive space it
    takes up. It's probably some kind of 4k update.
